Hi, We have recently purchased a Laser cutter. I have managed to get my hands on a few DXF files and have been amazed by what this machine can do. If any body knows where i could get some good files or would wish to share there files drop me a line and we can sort somthing out.
I have attached two files to show what im talking about.

Hey Morwim,
Would you share a pic of the 3d fly. I scaled it up to 18" wings. Now I don't have a clue how it goes together.
Thanks

you can also find files at http://cadcamtrainer.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=3

Morwim,

What laser system did you aquire. Let me know what type of files you are looking for, I would be glad to help.

looking for a picture of corpohumano.dxf which is a prehistoric skeleton of a man. I have the dxf and have lasercut it but now I can't find the picture. can anyone help

grover2007,

Here is the picture: http://www.laserteile.ch/01b87b93ea08d4a0e/index.html

thanks for that but that was not the right skeleton this is a more hunch over pre historic.
I don't suppose you have the dxf for the picture you gave us the link to

hey whats up ? I run 2 8000w amada lasers I have many programs set to run.I also have many DXF files that i can't figure out how get them to g-code format without cad. Can any one help I would be very glad to share my collection

What CAM system do you use to generate code for your lasers or do you write all your programs by hand?

Yes I do write most by hand. Many of my programs were just in a different G-code format when i got them and i just had to format them for my machine. The I.T guy has changed a few DXF files for me but only when he want's something.I have to edit most of my programs at work or home in windows note pad. I run 2 amada FO3015NT'S with AMNC_F system and fujitsu touch screen controllers. I have looked all over for software I can use at home but I fear I"m out of luck or I don't know what I'm looking for.

I am guessing your looking for something free. If not you may find some CAM software that are less than $500.00 that will work just dig around the CNC Zone to get the names. I use WE-CIM from Wittlock Engineering that would work, however, it is a little more expensive. http://www.wittlockeng.com/

And here is one of Jason's drawings that I cut into a piece of thin cherry. Thank you Jason for the nice work and the free drawings.

Skip, very nice result and thanks to Jason for supplying the graphic. Do you mind sharing where you buy the veneer?

Zax, that cherry is some of George Perzel's laser thins. He's over at the Sawmill Creek laser forum.

He sells some nice approx. 5/32" thick cherry, maple, walnut, and a couple other species. They are about 5 1/2 to 5 3/4"" wide and 18 or 24" long.

It's nice wood for ornaments, small boxes, and stuff like above.

Thanks. I thought it was, and have purchased from him in the past. Great quality and reasonable price.
